McMillan Healed, Ready to Replace Evans

Jalen McMillan is fully recovered from a neck injury that threatened his career and is ready to help fill the void left by Mike Evans' departure from the Buccaneers.

Jalen McMillan, who fractured three vertebrae and had herniated discs in a scary preseason injury last year, is now fully healed and ready to return to the field. The third-round pick played only four games last season but caught 12 passes for 178 yards in limited action. bettingx.club

With Mike Evans now in San Francisco, the Buccaneers will need McMillan to step up in the receiving corps. Coach Todd Bowles praised McMillan's toughness and competitiveness, saying 'Jalen's tough. His mental toughness is unbelievable.' McMillan previously had 37 receptions for 461 yards and eight touchdowns in 13 games during his rookie season.
